HARRY SISKIN', OF LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA.

conocen.' Be it known that I Henny Sisxiis, a citi zen of theiUnited Satatee, reeidinglat Los Angeles in the countyof Los Angeles and State o California, have invented new and l'. Improvements in Phonograph-Cabinet'Librai-y` ables, of which the following is a specification. y object net in the isti .grap constructioii-will be Fi re 1 is a front elevation of a phonograp brary table constructed in accordance with the princi les of my invention, as seen looking in t e direction indicated by the arrow -1 in Fig. 2.

Fig. 2 is a top plan view of the library f table showing the phonograph construction Vin dotted lines Fig. 3 is a erspective showing the major portion of t e phonograph construction mounted in a drawer, the drawer `being withdrawn from the table. i e

Fig. 4 is a fragnrientarl vertical cross-section on the line 4-4 of 1.

o drawer 1 comprises vertical sides 2 and 3, vertical ends 4 and 5 connectin the ends of the sides, a partition 6 interme iate of the ends,a bottom for the horn chamber tween the end 4 and. partition 6, the

slides 9 and 10 projecting outiivardl from the sides 2 and 3 on a level with the ottoni 7, and the dro ottom 11 for the phonobetween the end 5 and the partition 6; the sides 2 and 3, the end 5, and Vthe partition extending below the slides 9 and 10 to support the bottom 11.

The'phono ph 13 is chamber 12. glie bracket nd 6 communicates with the toiiethe bracket 14 and leads downwardly inside of the partition 6 through the partition into the chamber 8 and upwardly. f mounted in the bracket 14 in the usual manner to allow the free end of the tone-arm ca 'n the needle 17 to swing over the disk of t e phonogra h.

vertical sides converging upon a curved p ane from the outlet opening 24 to the inlet The horn thus shaped and constructed practically fills the chamber 8 and an o ening is formed through the side 3 in whic the discharge end of the horn having the opening 24 is mounted fush.

e drawer and phonograph construction thus incor orated with the drawer is inserted into a slide-way from the right-hand end of the table shown in Figs. 1 and 2 and the rawer occu ies substantially two-thirds of the length o the table, as shown in dotted lines in Fig. 2

t iis obvious that the phonograph construction is completely concealed in t e cabil net and that the ca inet presents the appearance of a libra table and nothing else; that the phonograp mechanism mounted in the drawer 1 is readily accessible by pulling out the drawer; and that the sound o ening the screen 29 may be readi y and tightly closed or opened to any desired extent without in any wa exposing the phonograph or dsguring t e table. e whole appJaratus is readily handled without disune i ing anything that may be upon the table linl pint of inv nnention ne et np in the following claims.
